Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
All Commentaries on Romans 3:27 Go To Romans 3
Cyril of Alexandria
AD 444
For who will glory, or for what, when everyone has become worthless and gone out of the right way, and nobody does good works anymore? Therefore he says that all glorying is excluded…. How? We have acquired the forgiveness of our former sins and have been justified freely by the mercy and grace of Christ. .
